The committee has been meeting monthly to discuss future plans and goals for the organization. These monthly meetings are open to any community members, parents, staff, and students. Thus this far the group has established its executive members and parent reps for each high school graduating class. In addition the committee has also begun establishing future goals. Such goals include but are not limited to:

Providing additional funding for academic needs that are not addressed by the district due to financial constraints

Establishing a tutoring program where approved students can serve as tutors to other students who are struggling academically in different subject areas

Developing positive public relationships where a focus can be placed on scholastic achievement of our students

Promote and provide financial support to the technology program in order to enhance the skills, tools, and technology opportunities to our students

Work collaboratively with staff to aide in additional classroom resources through grant opportunities and community members/local business donation

Please contact one of the above volunteers or Cari Buehler (419-855-7741 ext. 21201) if you would like to give a donation or help us in any way with this new endeavor. You are also welcome to attend our meetings which currently take place the third Wed. of the month in the high school library beginning at 6:30 p.m.
